As from the 1st May 2017 you will no longer be able to order your prescriptions using this website. We are encouraging our patients to sign up for Online Access, this will enable you to order your medication, book certain pre-bookable appointment slots and cancel any appointments you may have already have made. You can register for this service by clicking on the link on the right hand side of this screen headed "Patient Online Services" or call into the surgery and complete the necessary paperwork. This Online Access will give you a list of the exact medication we hold in your records and you will only need to tick the boxes of the items required. Using this service will make the process of ordering and issuing your prescriptions easier and safer for both parties.

With this website we are aiming to help you find all the information you need at the click of a mouse. You can download registration forms, change the contact details we hold for you and much more.

There is a wealth of information about medical conditions and diseases in our patient information leaflets as well as all the latest practice news and developments.

Changes to the out of hours service

As of October 20th 2015, if you need an urgent care contact point and are not able to contact the GP surgery you should contact NHS 111 and NOT the local Out of Hours service. You should use the NHS 111 service if you urgently need medical help or advice but it's not a life-threatening situation.

Call 111 if:

You need medical help fast but it's not a 999 emergency

You think you need to go to A&E or need another NHS urgent care service.

You don't know who to call or you don't have a GP to call.

You need health information or reassurance about what to do next.

For less urgent health needs, contact your GP or local pharmacist in the usual way.

111 is the NHS non-emergency number. It's fast, easy and free. Call 111 and speak to a highly trained adviser, supported by healthcare professionals. They will ask you a series of questions to assess your symptoms and immediately direct you to the best medical care for you. NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones.

PRESCRIPTIONS: 01772 325111 (this line is open between 9.30 am and 12 noon Monday to Friday)

PARKING & ACCESSThere are good parking facilities for patients. The practice has had to introduce clamping for non patient parking at a cost to the practice, due to non patient abuse of the facilities.

Disabled patients can access the practice via the wheel chair ramp at the main door of the surgery. There are toilets off the entrance hall with facilities for the disabled. The practice is currently reviewing the facilities to ensure we conform with the Disability Act which recently came into force.

Named Doctor: Dr K Patel.

THE LEYLAND COLLABORATIVE

We have been working hard to increase the numbers of appointments available for you. This has involved developing a partnership with other local practices, which we are pleased to tell you has now resulted in the formulation of the group named above. The Leyland Collaborative consists of the following practices Worden Medical Centre, Central Park Surgery, Sandy Lane Surgery, and The Village Surgeries - Croston & Eccleston. The new service will provide access to GP and Nurse appointments at weekends and Bank Holidays ( except Christmas Day) from December 2017 and from January 2018, GP appointments weekday evenings. The service is available to all patients within this group on a proportionate basis however it is important to be aware that the appointment may not necessarily be at this practice. These are all additional appointments so it is not the case that patients of other practices will now utilise all our appointments.

Available appointments will be offered as normal through this surgery and you will be informed if the appointment is at another site.
